President Trump, who I donated to and voted for, would be wise to learn a lesson from one-term Bush.

Most of the money Republicans plan to allocate in the Wednesday markup at the Senate Appropriations Committee is not even for Border Patrol and ICE, but for Health and Human Services (HHS).
They are literally pumping several billion dollars more into an operation that one judge referred to as completing a criminal conspiracy, delivering self-trafficked Central American teens into the hands of family members who themselves are here illegally. Fewer than 10 percent of those sponsoring the Central American teens are here legally. Congress should allocate more funding to deport those criminal smugglers, not streamline their operation by rewarding them with the goal of their conspiracy.
Even most of the funding for DHS will be for “humanitarian aid,” not for enforcement to hold the line on the river. “We want to build a wall. We think the president’s made a good case for that,” McConnell said on “Fox & Friends” Monday. “That’s not what this is about. This is just the humanitarian part of the problem on our side, obviously, of the border.”
The problem with this assertion is that McConnell refused to fight for more enforcement funding for the first two years of Trump’s presidency. He signed away leverage on every single budget bill, including the supplemental disaster spending bill that Democrats badly wanted. McConnell could have demanded enforcement funding in return for the $19 billion in spending, yet he gave it to them for free and convinced Trump to support the bill.

GOP is useless...at least the Democrats fight..
It’s because McConnell supports open borders.
Agree. I have more respect for evil nutcases like Pelosi, AOC, and even Hillary (spawn of satan) than I do for the repubscum.
They are a stench.
When under GWB, they managed to piss off the Base by backing immigration, the only $$$ left was Chamber of Commerce and key Billionaires such as Koch.
Rove and McCain told them to ignore the Tea Party and go for the $$$.
Its now exactly how we said.
AFP was a Rove-Koch group with lots of $$$ and open borders was all they cared about.
Now where does the GOP-e get funds?
They have pissed everyone off.
They were always weak on the border and on everything they were hired/elected to do. They had obama to hide behind. It’s why they campaign for democrats. They hate being in the majority and being outed as leftists.
Can we just Wise up already?
GOPe = RAT = UniParty = Deep State = Communism
Congress as a whole has been useless for the last 30 years more interested in self preservation than working to make America better.

They’re globalists avoiding being hunted as RINOs.
It's gotta play out.
This will help OUR people working at the border to keep things under control. I have no problem with it.
Now Koch is going to fund the democrats
Just doing with the Koch’s, Donohue and their other corporate puppet masters want them to do.
Bush League Republicans MUST become extinct before the Republic does.
Do not look at the wide open border behind the curtain!
I never thought the country would actually be essentially destroyed by immigration under a Trump administration. Hell,maybe a Clinton administration would be better at immigration. Our government is so damn strange and irregardless of party, the country is slowly dying.

True. WAY too many on FR living on the (R)N(C) plantation (the Pinto of political parties).
In before the “We’ll just have to vote more (C) & reform from within” crowd to show up.
